Lando Norris surprisingly took pole position ahead of the Netherlands' Grand Prix in Formula 1 at Zandvoort.

Home favourite Max Verstappen led the qualifying when Norris struck on his last lap with the fastest time by a margin of three tenths.

The Briton, who drives for McLaren, is the first driver to manage to beat Verstappen to pole position in his home race.

Verstappen has won all three races since the Netherlands' Grand Prix returned to the F1 programme in 2021. And the Dutchman has started from pole position in all three races.

Lando Norris' teammate Oscar Piastri was third fastest in the final qualifying.

The race will be held on Sunday.
